"Is it possible that this person can fly directly?"
Xie Chen did not speak out, but thought in his heart.
There are no trails here. Could it be that besides the main entrance, there are some hidden mechanisms?
But I didn't hear anything being opened here.
He was standing so close to the door, and the feeling of disappearing out of thin air was quite outrageous.
Xie Chen pursed his lips and remembered that one of them had just taken away the foam box with "river shrimp" written on it while leaving.
Now I walked back and forth close to this side and found no trace of the box. In other words, the four people should have left with the box.
But if you carry such a box, it will be more difficult to go up to the attic. If you have to walk through a trail or there are some mechanisms in the dark, it will be impossible to do it silently.
Xie Chen pressed his pocket watch directly.
In this unknown situation, it is naturally impossible for him to climb up the ladder openly. Using the ability of the pocket watch to get such conditions for himself is undoubtedly the best choice.
As the pocket watch was pressed by him, he also looked at a clock hanging next to the coffee table.
This thing is also the only item that I can use to confirm whether it is effective overseas.
Fortunately, when I looked over, this thing had indeed stopped rotating.
I couldn't help but feel relieved. Fortunately, the pocket watch did not go wrong at this time, which was also good news.
Xie Chen stretched out his hand and pulled the ladder in front of him, then pulled it to the side and put it away.
Then he put the pocket watch into his pocket and immediately pulled out the knife he had just taken from the doorknob.
Xie Chen licked his lips and looked up at the entrance to the attic, which could almost accommodate one person.
He held the knife in his left hand and slowly climbed up with his stronger right hand.
In fact, it is not high. After all, it is a loft built on the basis of the first floor. If it were not set off by the goods placed here, it would appear to be particularly low.
Because there is a loft in this part, I can already touch the upper part just by raising my hand slightly.
Even his own hands were not fully extended.
Xie Chen kicked his right leg a little uncomfortably. If the space hadn't been too narrow, his joints wouldn't have been so sore just after climbing two steps.
Because the space is too narrow, all the weight of the body is basically pressed on the joints of the legs. It is not just the knees that bear the weight.
And because the top of the attic has to enter first, the bottom has to pay attention to the angle and bend both feet at the same time.
Basically all the weight of my body rests on these two legs.
"It's so damn hard to climb this broken ladder once..."
Xie Chen gritted his teeth and complained, but he still had to endure it and continued to scroll up.
Fortunately, the distance is not long.
Soon, half of his body had entered the attic.
The originally particularly strong smell had completely disappeared at this time, and the dark attic was filled with the aroma of wood.
It is a kind of sandalwood from old ancient wood. Just smelling it makes you feel particularly comfortable.
However, because it was too dark up here, even if I crawled in, I couldn't see clearly what was going on inside.
"Why is there so much space in here?"
Xie Chen said in a daze.
The space here is completely different from what I imagined. Originally, there was only a small area down there, but now that I came in, there was such a large space.
But although the space is larger than expected, there is no cargo stacked here, and there are not as many wooden boxes as there are on the first floor.
"It's really strange..."
Xie Chen held up the sharper knife in his hand and slowly moved closer to the front. Although the light was extremely dim, the little light reflected from the wooden board below still made the blade look particularly shiny.
Xie Chen plucked up the courage and walked forward slowly, and followed him to the middle part.
Although the front part of the attic was large enough, there was actually no storage for anything, and because of the darkness, I walked very carefully and did not dare to move forward too fast.
Even every step he took was extremely cautious.
Xie Chen walked slowly, but did not find anyone. Although the space in the attic was large enough, it was only that small.
It's not so big that it can be compared to an entire floor, and since it doesn't store anything, it can't hide anyone at all.
Although it is dark here, it is only because of comparison with the one below.
The wooden boards assembled here have many gaps in the middle, and a lot of light can be transmitted in. And when the eyes slowly adapt to the light and darkness here, they can actually see the general situation clearly.
In this situation where you can't hide from anyone at all, just watching like this is useless.
"Since they are not hiding in the attic, where did all four of them go?"
Xie Chen said it helplessly, but then he passed his own echo back and forth. The attic seemed very strange.
Although there is nothing here, it makes it even more abnormal.
If an attic exists but is not used to store anything, it would be better to stack all the goods downstairs than to move those boxes of goods up and put them in the attic.
Even though the boxes themselves were extremely large, there was no way they could fit into the attic.
Maybe those goods were not intended to be stored in the attic when they were delivered.
But this is also a very strange point. If there was no intention to put these things in the attic in the first place, then what is the point of building this attic?
It can’t be just to look good, right?
That would be pure stupidity.
Reducing the original height and space of the first floor in order to create a loft is an operation that a normal person would not be able to figure out.
This also proves that there is definitely something going on here, but it’s a pity that I haven’t figured out what’s wrong for the time being?
Xie Chen continued to fumble forward, not even walking in the middle. Instead, he followed the perimeter of the attic and gently touched the wooden boards next to it.
Just move forward bit by bit.
Although my eyes can see a little more clearly now, I can only see the general situation clearly, and I will miss many details inside the attic.
If you really want to see the details clearly, you have to get very close.
Although this is very slow in efficiency and speed, there is nothing we can do about it.
I'm afraid that there is some kind of secret door or switch in the attic. If I just take a quick look, I might just overlook it.
